Discovered within the TF AMD Microelectronics publication and discovered by @phatal187, the image shows an undisclosed AMD EPYC Genoa CPU without its massive heat spreader. This chip features a total of 12 CCD's and while we don't know how many of them are enabled on this part, such configurations will offer up to 96 cores and 192 threads. There is also the massive IO die and a lot of capacitors on the interposer which will fit on the massive LGA 6096 package.

With the recent rumors suggesting the consumer-aimed Zen 4 CPUs hitting mass production later this month, it looks like the EPYC Genoa CPUs may also be targetting mass production soon since they are planned for official launch in the second half of 2022.
